650ml bottle. Amber color with an off white head. Sweet malt aroma with notes of orange and caramel . Subtle orange flavor is overtaken by sweet maltiness and spicy hops, decent bitter finish. Medium bodied, fairly smooth and well carbonated. Definitely expected more orange, but overall a decent beer, although its kind of overpriced.

Sep 1, 2008 (650ml bottle) Purchased at the LCBO Rideau in Ottawa for $4.95. Pours a copper body with an almond-coloured head. Nose of orange and mild honey. Flavour of spiced malt with a tart citrus base. Not really that bad but a tad expensive for the quality. Average.

Aug 9, 2008 Bottle from my secret santa. Dull auburn pour with a decent head. Nose is predominantly coriander with limited orange and some sweet malt. Mostly spice and astringent malt with no orange to be found. One dimensional and boring.
